Alex Bruda made a great first impression on me, serving as
my interpreter as I shared at an EGM-Romania children’s worker conference. Almost immediately after meeting him, I confided
in a coworker, “He should be serving with Every Generation Ministries!” I’d had just a few conversations with him but
already could see that his heart and vision were the same as ours: To see children transformed! Subsequent meetings confirmed my initial reaction
and I began to see all the gifts and abilities that could be of use in the
ministry of EGM. It wasn't long before
we were talking seriously about EGM staff needs.
Alex lives with his wife and two young boys in the Romanian
capital city of Bucharest. They are the
kind of super busy people who are known to be always ready for a new ministry
challenge. With their vast ministry
background, they are ready to help wherever, whether it is kid’s camp, a
training seminar, a language lesson or some legal advice! They are very active in their own local
church but also are eager to help other churches in their quest to do true
biblical children’s ministry.
Today, Alex serves as EGM’s Central Europe Resource Team
Director. In that role, he supports the
EGM partnerships in the Central Region and God has used him greatly! When we added to the team in Central Europe,
it made room for a new challenge of coordinating the field research work EGM is
doing in the Middle East where we are exploring the possibilities of
establishing a regional EGM ministry center. In addition to presenting children’s worker seminars in Jordan, Israel
and Egypt, God has used Alex to establish an Arabic language children’s
ministry resource website at www.egmarabic.org
where isolated children’s workers can get the help and support they need.
I’m very glad that my first impressions have become lasting
ones!
